I WILL WAIT WITH YOU

I'm waiting
I'm waiting on You, Lord
And I am hopeful
I'm waiting on You, Lord
Though it is painful
But patiently, I will wait

I will move ahead, bold and confident
Taking every step in obedience
While I'm waiting
I will serve You
While I'm waiting
I will worship
While I'm waiting
I will not faint
I'll be running the race
Even while I wait

I'm waiting
I'm waiting on You, Lord
And I am peaceful
I'm waiting on You, Lord
Though it's not easy
But faithfully, I will wait
Yes, I will wait


Part of a song by: John Waller

When I heard this song for the first time I thought of all the prayers I prayed that weren't answered. I thought of all the times I asked God for something that never came or never happened. I thought of the prayers I am still waiting on him to answer and then I just thought. As humans we are impatient and ungrateful and after this post please don't think I mean we will always get everything we want or ask for because we won't. We never think that some of the things we pray for aren't in our best interest. That some of the things we prayed would never happen did because they made us better people, better parents, better friends, better spouses, or better Christians. So in a short post today remember this, God never forsakes us, he never lets us down, he never fails us, and he never lies. If God has promised you something it will come to pass. If you are waiting then do just that. God said pray in expectance and pray fervently which in one place is defined as showing great emotion - so pray with all your heart. Also that the fervent prayer will avail which means to be of advantage - so don't give up. If you want something more than anything in this world and it is aligned with God's word and you have his favor I believe God will deliver. Also remember we don't always get what we want the minute we ask for it, God's time is not our time and I believe sometimes he wants to see if our faith will stand, if we will pray until he answers. He wants to see if we will wait and truly hold on to him while we wait. So while we are waiting I will pray he answers your prayers too, that he sends healing to the sick, comfort to the mourning, peace to the depressed, love to the brokenhearted and so on. Let's wait together.

James 5:16 - The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.

Galations 6:9 - And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.

And remember

YOU ARE DOING A GREAT JOB ON THIS SINGLE PARENT JOURNEY!!

God Bless You!!
